# I had to use Roget's Thesaurus to do my post
Looks like you used Roger's Profanisaurus for yours :-)

(was stuck on another word for broadcasting, propagating was the end result)

# No apology required. Fuck all wrong with profanity!
Agree with you on religion, it's just an excuse for a scrap, whatever level you look at. Christians vs Muslims at the top, Protestants vs Catholics further down. One big tree of mayhem, and they're all trying to hack each other's branches off.

# Publicising did come up
But I thought better of it. I suppose "preaching" would've been more appropriate.

Propagate is usable, though. Lies can be propagated. As can, of course, propaganda.

# I like promulgating
Problem is though, the nicer the words you use, the fewer people understand you.

# What's that you say?
Edit: Almost seriously though, I agree but whereas fairly recently it was unrealistic to expect someone to pull out the OED to find out what you meant it's surely not too difficult to Google?
